SINKo de Mayo? 𝍅
Today looks like SINKo de Mayo; as in lots of rain, and ensuing deep water at the curbs. The forecast indicated the possibility of locally heavy downpours; and when this happens, some people move their cars to the neutral ground.
Normally, parking on the neutral ground isn’t allowed; but vehicles parked along curbs could get flooded if it rains very hard. At such times, this rule is temporarily waived; and it’s not always SINKo de Mayo. It can happen in December!
Rain, of course, follows no rules; it does whatever it want to do; and whenever it wants. It doesn’t wait politely for us cyclists to complete a ride; and such was the case this morning.
Tired Is Good
Tired is good? Usually I don’t think like that; but is certainly seemed true today.
Because of the forecast, I didn’t want to try riding to the salvage store. I rode to the park to do some laps, instead.
But I felt tired; after just one circuit I decided to head home. When I got on the bike path again, I was dismayed to see a very stormy-looking sky towards the Northwest. I sure wanted to beat that home!
Before I could get back home, there was some light rain/misting; and at least one very hefty wind gust. But so far (10:00 am), we haven’t had the heavy downpour that I was expecting. It drives me crazy when T-storms are predicted; but don’t happen.

ABOUT ME
I began this website primarily as a way to present the story of how I accomplished a century ride on an adult tricycle. Other riders of adult trikes might want to know whether it’s possible. It sure is! You can read all about it in My Story.
I live in New Orleans; and retired in January 2023. More time for cycling!
